Craig's Thesis Available

My thesis proposes the Voting Model for various people search problems, such as expert search in enterprise settings (find me someone who knows about...) , or blog(ger) search (find me a blog about the general topic...). I also examine the reviewer assignment problem (suggest for me reviewers for this paper...). In general, the Voting Model is concerned with the ranking of aggregates of documents.
